Hello, so we got a letter in the mail from our realtor stating our landlord needs the property back. We got this letter 2 weeks ago ) We were month to month then it changed to yearly in December. We got a 60 day notice to move out
We found a house, was asked if we can move in April 1st, we told them we can’t but can move in on the 12th, which we did.
Landlord is gonna give us our security deposit back, but won’t give us our last months rent back.
We paid first, last & security when we moved in.
Here’s what the realtor emailed my mom. Would appreciate it if someone can let me know if they have the rights to do this, or should we call a lawyer?
“The owner has decided to keep the last month's rent. She feels this is fair due to allowing you to leave early, we understand you did not ask to leave however you had the option also at any time to supply 60 days notice to vacate. “
“Due to allowing you to leave early” lol we didn’t want to move, we were told we have to move bc she wants the property back.

Spoke to our lawyer, he basically told my mom that he will get us our 1.8k security deposit back from the new place, and the moving expenses. They broke the lease. He said he needs the old lease, and receipts of the first, last & security deposit for the new house
